Reds Prevail, 3-2, Over Chicago
The Chicago Cubs got a sterling performance from pitcher Mariano Ortega, but the Cincinnati Reds still prevailed, 3-2. Ortega threw 6.0 innings allowing 2 runs. Jorge Fernández claimed the win after being brought in from the bullpen. The left-hander allowed no runs on 1 hit in 3 innings. His record stands at 2-0. The win boosted Cincinnati to 19-18.

Cincinnati took a 3-2 lead on Jeff Adams's 10th double of the season. The run-scoring double, which Adams hit in the top of the seventh, left Chicago pitcher Keury Mella visibly frustrated.

Cincinnati manager Kevin Cash commended his team for "banging out a nice win."
